No doubt, GCM is a useful service for legitimate software developers. But virus writers are using Google Cloud Messaging as an additional C&C for their Trojans. Furthermore, the execution of commands received from GCM is performed by the GCM system and it is impossible to block them directly on an infected device.

The only way to cut this channel off from virus writers is to block developer accounts with IDs linked to the registration of malicious programs.

Details:
The vulnerability is caused by an invalid pointer corruption when processing a corrupt .cfg file through the kaspersky exception filters, which could be exploited by attackers to crash the complete software process.
The bug is located over the basegui.ppl & basegui.dll when processing a .cfg file import.
